This fundraiser has ended. We raised a total of $670 for charity! Thank you to everyone who donated and offered support — I am not exaggerating when I say this wouldn’t be possible without each of you, and not only in the ways you’d assume. I’d like to recognize a few people in particular: Ms. Vanselow, for offering design feedback and generally supporting the artistic side of this endeavor, Mr. Haroon, for ensuring that I would have a grant to buy the stickers so that all the proceeds could go to charity, and Mr. Juiliano, for being my biggest cheerleader from day 0, and even matching the total donation of our Calc class. Thank you.
Confirmations of the donation:
It’s clear that many people have suffered because of the Russia-Ukraine War, whether as casualties, refugees, soldiers, loved ones watching from afar, or otherwise. Yet, while the war is constantly publicized, the intersectional struggle that Ukrainians within marginalized communities face isn’t often acknowledged. In fact, many organizations and programs in Ukraine offering resources and aid to the general public are unaccesible to such Ukrainians; some aren’t safe to leave their homes, let alone make the voyage, others are stranded in countries they don’t know how to navigate, and many are even turned away at the door.
This humanitarian crisis has many layers to it, and the best thing we can do to support those in need is to a) educate ourselves and b) donate what we can afford to the cause, whether it be time, money, energy, attention, etc. In the spirit of that notion, here is my small fundraiser!
